Letchworth #1341 Free
At 10.6 miles and about 33 minutes over one stage, this route is one of the few here to head south to the villages of Great Wymondley and Oakfield. It covers Phoenix Park Estate, Jackmans Estate and Lordship Estate, with limits from 30 to 60 mph. There are eight roundabouts and eight traffic light junctions, and only three right turns across the whole drive.
Watch Out For
- Five give way junctions, including a give way junction on the estate approach.
- Narrow country lanes around Wymondley Road with limited visibility.
- Eight roundabouts; give way to the right and signal left on exit.
Route Features
- Hitchin Road carries the faster southern leg toward Wymondley.
- Baldock Lane and the 50 mph section pick up pace before the return.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the start point.
Key Tips
- Adjust speed for narrow rural lanes and hold back where hedges limit your view.
